This was a good hostel for what it was. It's located right by Diamond Hill and is walkable to Kylemore Abbey. Great location for exploring Connemara. The hostel was a bit dead when I arrived, but then again so was the town. I had a whole 6 person room to myself for one night. Staff was friendly though and the hostel seemed nice. I'd recommend it if you're staying in Letterfrack.

It's important to remember that this is a hostel and not a B&B or hotel, therefore the facilities are more than adequate. Beds very comfortable. Self catering facilities are what is required with a great butcher and supermarket nearby, also a fantastic pub and restaurant attached! The staff were friendly and fun, we got all that we asked for and more. Thank you!

This was my 2nd visit to the Bards Den. Since my last visit in 2014 I can see a number of improvements have taken place, including new mattressess, paint etc. As ever, the hostel's location is ideal, but it is the atmosphere, service, and bar food next door that makes it stand out. Vincent and his staff are very hospitable and friendly. The bar food is especially good, wholesome fresh food, reasonably priced. The mussels were particulary good. I have no hesitation in recommending the Bard's Den
